Intro: Db
 
Verse:
Db             Fm
I wish it was 2004
                                      Bbm
I wish my favorite bands were still on tour
                                Ab
I wish everything wasn’t so, so complicated
       Db                          Fm
and I, I wish that I was still as tall
                               Bbm
as the markings on the kitchen wall
                                           Db7
Wish I could gain back the confidence that they created
 
Chorus:
Gb                             Ab
Lately things haven’t been the best for me
Bbm     Ab
I know you think
Gb       Db7
it’s all in my head
Gb        Ab
I'm crazy for wondering what it’s all for
    Bbm            Bbm
but every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    Ab                   Ab
for someone to come and take me away
Gb                  Ab                 Db
and say we’re going back to 2004
 
Verse:
Db                                   Fm
I, I never had it all quite figured out
                                    Bbm
I never really learned what growing up was all about
 Ab
    and I still don’t know
              Db                                  Fm
And there are so many things that I wish I could say I’ve done
                   Bbm
They say that time flies when you’re having fun
     Db7
Does time only fly when you’re young
 
Chorus:
Gb                             Ab
Lately things haven’t been the best for me
Bbm     Ab
I know you think
Gb       Db7
it’s all in my head
Gb        Ab
I'm crazy for wondering what it’s all for
    Bbm            Bbm
but every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    Ab                   Ab
for someone to come and take me away
Gb                  Ab
and say we’re going back to 2004
 
Bridge:
Bbm                       Ab
    Looking back on it I know that I am fortunate
    Gb
and I can not complain
    Ab
The nerves, the stress, the total mess
 
It's all inside my brain
Bbm                          Ab                     Gb
but growing up just makes me really really really scared
    Ab
And I don’t think that I’m prepared
 
Pre-Chorus:
Db
I, I wish it was it 2004
Fm
   I wish my childhood was still in store
Bbm
   and I wish everything wasn’t so
Db7
   so complicated
 
Chorus:
Gb                             Ab
Lately things haven’t been the best for me
Bbm     Ab
I know you think
          Gb  Db7
that it’s all in my head
      Gb            Ab
and I must be crazy for wondering what it’s all for
    Bbm            Bbm
but every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    Ab                   Ab
for someone to come and take me away
Gb                  Ab
and say we’re going back to 2000
      Bbm            Bbm
Yeah, every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    Ab                   Ab
for someone to come and take me away
Gb                  Ab               Db
and say we’re going back to 2004
